    Toast

    Country kitchen is that hole in the wall that becomes a staple for breakfast when you don't cook. The ambiance and customer service is sooooo good.You know there is so much love when the waiter is so knowledgeable and give little facts and details about the menu/food. I got the blueberry pancakes combo. And everything was really really good . The pancakes were buttery and had a good amount of blueberry. Also another thing that stood out was the breakfast potatoes. My boyfriend got them done extra crispy and they were so good we ordered another side of them. Definitely coming back

    We have been here a few times for breakfast and every time we come in the service is great. The waitress is nice and attentive to make sure you have what you need. The ambience of the restaurant makes you feel like you are at home eating some good food. My favorite dish here is the country fried steak and eggs. The steak is perfectly breaded and the sausage gravy they put on top has a really good taste and not too salty. I usually get my eggs scrambled and they are always fluffy, I would love to know their secret. The house potatoes that I steal from my boyfriend's plate are pretty good, too. I like the crispy ones so maybe next time, I will ask for well done. Overall, great breakfast spot but it can get a bit busy, but definitely worth the wait. Service is great and quick which is a plus when you are hungry. We will definitely be back.

    2 Eggs and Bacon

    Located off East Spring St in Long Beach. Parking is small it's shared with the other businesses in this small little strip area. The place is not too big had a good amount of tables to dine in. They are only opened till 2pm so they serve only breakfast and lunch. The staff were friendly. I got the 2 eggs with 4 bacon strips and the homemade biscuits and gravy. The service was good and pretty quick. Overall had a good experience here the food can be a bit pricey for breakfast but I feel they gave enough to suffice the price. I'll have to come here to try the lunch items next time.

    Reuben sandwich.

    I've been coming here for over a year fairly consistently. It's only gotten better and better. Today, for the first time, I tried their famous granola pancake. It's full of bananas, blueberries and granola. I don't know how but they managed to keep the granola crunchy which adds to the enjoyment of the dish. As I have heard people say, try the pancake without the syrup first. It really doesn't need any. I always enjoy playful banter with Yusi. She's an excellent server and I recently learned that she is the owner. This must be the reason why it's gotten better and better. I also want to shout out to Owen. He was the busser. Speaking of bussers, he was busting his rear during a very busy rush. He kept a clear head and kept focused on the tasks at hand. Great spot, busy for a reason. Parking can be tricky.

    Biscuits and gravy

    Wifey wanted to come here while we were in the area. Nice small restaurant in a small strip mall. We ordered the Farmers sandwich and the Piggy omelette. The food was delicious and cooked fresh. My order came with a biscuit and gravy- the gravy was bland and the biscuit was too hard. Decent and quiet place with not too much noise. Friendly and efficient service too. Come on in folks.

    Kids grilled cheese sandwich with fries
    Christopher W.

    Great service and comfort food for breakfast, brunch, or lunch only. In addition to omelettes and toast, they have sandwiches such as tuna melt, salads, burgers, and burritos. Vegetarian options include veggie burger and veggie omelette. Additional options include egg whites, grilled cheese, and kids meals. They are famous for their home fries and freshly made orange juice and strawberry jam.

    Breakfast

    This place is fantastic! The food is tasty, the service is excellent, and the restaurant is spotless. The banana pancakes and French toast are perfectly prepared--moist and just lightly sweet. The homemade potatoes are also really good. Five star place for breakfast!! Highly recommended!!

    Sometimes you just want a straightforward meal, and Country Kitchen fit the bill. The place itself had a cozy, no-frills feel, and our waitress was quick, friendly, and efficient. We received our food in good time, which is always a plus. As for the meal, it was okay--not bad, but nothing that stood out either. It filled the spot, but it wasn't the kind of food that makes you rave or crave a repeat visit. Overall, Country Kitchen is a fine place for a quick bite when you're hungry and want friendly service without the fuss.

    Raw burger meat
    Miriah S.

    Be careful here. They don't take food safety seriously - I was served a pink hamburger. The server said the cook must have rushed it since he was on the way out from his shift. Super gross. Maybe breakfast is safer here but I'd at least avoid the burger.

    Country Kitchen is located on Cherry and Spring in Long Beach, about a mile away from the Long Beach Airport. It serves diner classics like pancakes, chicken fried steaks, omelets, and the like. I came on a Sunday morning and there was no wait to get in at 11am. The food was prepared nicely and the country fried steak and home fries were seasoned well. They offer biscuits and gravy as an option for your bread with any of their breakfasts and it was nice; however, the gravy was bland. I went with a standard pancake combo with scrambled eggs and sausage and it was exactly what I wanted - no more or no less. They do have the option for a "granola pancake", which offers some crispy textures in your pancakes, but that's not what I was craving. Overall, I left happy and I got what I was hoping for. I felt that Country Kitchen was a solid place for a diner meal with no frills.

    I've been driving by here for a few years and never noticed it. Today my husband saw it on google and said let's try it. Omg what a find! Delicious food, nice and hot!!!! Super friendly employees and fast seating. Can't complain at all! Loved it and will return.

    Farmer's Sandwich
    Rudy M.

    My girlfriend, I inadvertently stopped here for breakfast. She thought that it was linked to one with the same name in Torrance but today I remain unsure of that. When I am sure is that this place has very very good food. As a first time customer, I was very brave to try their country fried steak. However, found out that it was quite up there with the best. To whom I thought was the owner gave a thumbs up when she heard my request for breakfast. It appears that her thumbs up meant a lot. The mistake was perfectly fried and crispy. The gravy on top was OK, but it needs a little bit more love on the seasoning side. The hashbrowns were incredible. I took a good look at them and it looks like they sliced them fresh, which leads me to believe that is what makes them so perfectly crispy and delicious. Whoever thought of that strategy was a genius. The sourdough bread was good as well. I look forward to trying something else, but for those of you who are country fried steak fans, this place has it good. My girlfriend had the Farmer sandwich and looked to enjoy it quite well. I think the bread might've been too soggy due to her over easy egg, but overall she enjoyed it, as well as the crispy hashbrowns. The staff there really looks after you. The place is very clean and gizzard that home. We feel with the curtains and everything. It has a small parking lot, but if you show up in time for breakfast, you won't have to worry about that.

Blocks for having similar sentiments and shared experiences. IF I WERE ANTI-trans, then I would not have supported you and would not have given you my money. I gave you my money, and unfortunately, you continued to deliver $#!t service. Notice how you do not deny your awful and discriminatory service? Exactly... get out of my neighborhood with your stolen logos. I am disappointed at the fact that people continue to fall for this awful coffee shop that continues to profit of the community through their culture vulture ways. Are people not seeing that this is ran by a cult? The food is awful. Matcha could be better, but it lacks so much potential. The burritos are dry and not fresh. The ambience is filled with performative events, and the owners do not give back to the community. They continue to attract the wrong crowd causing displacement in the local community. Discrimination? ya, let's dialogue... true LB natives know this is not the place for black or brown people. You will be heavily discriminated. Also, check out Mooneyes auto parts. Do y'all see the resemblance in their logo and good time logo? That should say a lot about business and community ethics. I suggest y'all stop supporting places such as Good Time and visit other non-cult like and. ACTUAL POC owned coffee shops in the local area.

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers.

Food & drinks: They offer a brunch menu, happy hour menu, and dinner menu. Unfortunately, they do not have a full lunch menu. 1) French Toast Latte - I'm a crackhead for caffeine, so of course I ordered a latte instead of a cocktail lol. I enjoyed this latte! It surprisingly wasn't too sweet. It had a good balance of coffee to sweetener ratio. 2) Great American Cheeseburger - My friend and I ordered this from the Sunset Hour menu. The burger was good and tasted as expected. 3) Fries - Since the burger didn't come with fries, I ordered some on the side. They were shoe string fries topped with shredded cheese. The fries were also good. Pricing: I can only speak on their Sunset Hour menu. The prices were very cheap. The cocktails weren't discounted since they were the same price. The Sunset Menu wasn't anything out the ordinary. The food did the job and tasted good. Will comeback to try their other lattes!

I've never been to a coffee shop where employees were so focused on making a customer feel uncomfortable instead of simply serving people.

All around, this place gets five stars + and I can't wait to be back!
